I have a venting skylight 22-1/8" X 22-1/8". It leaks & I need a replacement gasket, or a permanent fix (but I want to coninue to be able to use the venting feature). I'm not sure of the manufacturer. This was installed before we purchased the house. I did find a xeroxed sheet dated Feb 15, 1987 listing APC RESIDENTIAL SKYLIGHTS: the particular model is RLV2828, ROOF-LIGHT (tm) VENTING GLASS SKYLIGHT. Can anyone help me, either to track down the manufacturer, or (more preferably) refer me to where I can obtain a replacement gasket. I've temporarily sealed the skylight with Vaseline petroleum jelly, but this is a temporary fix. People in this area seem to have no clue as to what I'm talking about or no longer sell venting skylights. Thank you.
